One of Fintech Cadence\u2019s flagship programs – Ascension<\/a> –\u00a0concluded last week with its 3rd and biggest cohort to date!<\/p>\n

Ascension is a carefully designed fintech program that helps early-stage start-ups (pre-series A) achieve their next company milestone by connecting them to key industry experts in the fintech ecosystem. The uniqueness of this program is that it centres on delivering curated fintech expertise including regulation, financial institution partnerships, data management and sales. Since 2017, it has seen 32 fintechs graduate, 164 experts involved and 4 Canadian Provinces represented.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe Ascension program helped us take the necessary step back in order to make the right decisions for Emma. Their weekly monitoring, coaching and scheduled meetings with experts have made a big difference in our entrepreneurial journey. Their commitment to our success is remarkable.\u00a0 Thank you to the entire Fintech Cadence team! You will always have a special place in the Emma family!\u201d<\/blockquote>

\u2014 Felix Deschatelets, Co-Founder & CEO at Emma<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This year we continued to see the growth of the program reflected in the diversity of fintech verticals – they included: PropTech, Payments, Personal Finance Management, Alternative Lending, InsurTech, Cybersecurity and Algo-Trading. After 3 months of hard work, 13 Canadian startups graduated on April 28th from across Canada including: British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec; and many walked away with incredible prizes in our first ever virtual Demo Day (see end of article for full company list description and prizes awarded).<\/p>\n

\u201cFor us here at Leav, Ascension was really helpful in fostering great and meaningful business relationships with our mentors. Finding constructive input in the business world is really key, and Ascension directly funnels you into a community of bright Fintech minds. That\u2019s what it\u2019s all about, really – the opportunity for you to create opportunity.\u201d<\/blockquote>

\u2014 Charles-\u00c9tienne Simard, Co-Founder & CEO at Leav<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This year we also witnessed the launch of our new Business Fundamentals workshop series, where we were joined by Holt Accelerator on How to Pitch<\/em>; EY on Hiring and Building the Right Team<\/em>; IVADO on Implementing AI & Data Science in the Product Roadmap<\/em> and lastly Lavery Lawyers on Legal and I.P<\/em> for the startups.<\/p>\n

Pitch decks have an ask at the end, here\u2019s ours.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Though challenges and obstacles are nothing new for founders – Covid-19 has proven to be detrimental for young startups. We have been nothing but impressed at the resilience and perseverance of this 2020 cohort with their attitude and adaptability to the pandemic. Nevertheless, navigating the crisis can be difficult and more stressful and therefore we have an ask for you.<\/p>\n

If you find yourself fond of some of these startups and you are someone that can provide valuable insights on the industry, how to navigate it, or even be able to connect them with someone that can help take them to the next milestone, please do reach out to these founders! You will find the contact information and complete list of the cohort at the end of the article.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cFintech Cadence Ascension Program was a great support and provided connections to a curated list of industry experts who provided genuine advice and guidance during the sessions and everyone involved focussed on problem solving for the founders & company. We made some great connections!\u201d<\/blockquote>

\u2014 Khushboo Jha, Founder & CEO at BuyProperly<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

So what’s next?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

We\u2019re excited to see what will come next for these founders and their startups. Some have already come so far, such as our 3 Coop\u00e9rathon<\/a> Finance Track teams who emerged with just an idea during the Fall of 2019. Whether it\u2019s launching their pilot project or raising their funding rounds, we know Canadians will benefit greatly from the solutions our graduating teams have developed.<\/p>\n

If you are curious about entrepreneurship and would like to roll up your sleeves into the fintech sector, we invite you to join our fourth edition of the Formathon – a 3-week open innovation competition kicking off May 28th<\/span><\/a> where you will get to work on real fintech challenges affected by Covid-19.<\/p>\n

If instead you are an early stage Canadian fintech looking for support and connections to the fintech ecosystem, applications are now open for our 2021 Cohort<\/span><\/a> – we hope to see you apply!<\/p>\n

If you missed our Demo Day and want to see live pitches – catch up on it ici<\/a>.<\/p>\n
